Domestic Reforms  Domestic reform entails an area of public policy developed with accountancy of law, government policies and administration procedures that are directly related to national issues and activities affecting the nation. The policy is different from foreign policies which advocate for government advances that is surrounded by political interdictions. For example, domestic policy covers a wide range of areas, including business, education, energy, health care, law enforcement, money and taxes, natural resources, social welfare, and personal rights and freedoms.  James Howard Meredith He is an Air Force veteran and the first American student to be admitted to the segregated institution in University of Mississippi. This means that his inference oversaw many domestic reform of public policy developed in accountancy of law, government enactments and administration procedures. He organized March Against Fear from Memphis, Tennessee to Mississippi to counter attack escalating racism in the South and encouraged black people to be registered as a voter.

Marilyn Monroe  She is an American actress who was born in 1926 and is imposture as a sexy symbol. She has acted in major series in 1950’s and early 1960. She was inspired by the early childhood exposure in Jungle life. As a merchant Marine worine worker she used to spray airplane parts with fire and inspected parachutes. The factory is attached to Reginald Denney who commanded U.S army that future Ronald Reagan, an icon that shot morale-boosting photographs for Yank, the Army Weekly Magazine dedicated to young women who helped in the war.  The episode happened in verge of negro war against racism. Malcolm x was shot to death at a Rally in Washington Heights where he was addressing a rally of his followers in a ballroom floor. Supporters shot the suspect and beat him up to revenge however; police secured him from the ballroom crowd. Malcolm had only uttered few words before his death where three other negroes were shot and died. Malcolm was shot seven times however, medical experts assert that he died of multiple gunshot wounds. One police theory was that as many as five conspirators might have been involved, two creating a diversionary disturbance. James X, New York spokesman for the Black Muslims, denied that his organization had had anything to do with the killing.

Just one week before the slaying, Malcolm was bombed out of the small brick home in East Elmhurst, Queens, where he had been living. James X suggested that Malcolm had set off firebombs himself “to get publicity.”

The scheme reflects black repulsion among them to gain celebrity status. The two theories are related. Black a kill black while white race watch.

The prospect of hearing Civil Rights leader Dr King speak in the US capital was all the reason Rev Holmes, then the head of the Berkeley Institute’s Home Economics Department, needed to take the trip.

The theme is related to ancient wars we experienced that have transformed the world to unite in verge of growing need of resources. Astronomers and space experts carry out the exercise to predicate reliable recorded history. The irst step to get man to space involved a man-made object by German scientists during the second world war while testing the V-2 rocket. It has been the first man-made object in space. So far, space exploration has been used by the German scientists and American military to pursue military goals and research civilians.

Jacqueline Kennedy  Jacqueline Kennedy is the wife of the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, and First Lady of the United States during his presidency from 1961 until his assassination in 1963. They were united by a mutual friend    
John F. Kennedy Assassination  He was assimilated in 1963 in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas by a sniper while travelling to meet his wife Jacqueline in a presidential motorcade. The major cause of his assimilation still remain still as Lee Harvey Osward seemed to act alone., a case that more than 80% of Americans still suspect a plot and a cover up from the commission. The president had maximum exposure to the crowd before his arrival to Dallas and he was accompanied by his vice-president and the Dallas governor. This means that a plot to assassinate him was under way. At 12:29 p.m. CST, as President Kennedy’s uncovered limousine entered Dealey Plaza, Nellie Connally, then the First Lady of Texas, turned around to President Kennedy, who was sitting behind her, and commented, “Mr. President, you can’t say Dallas doesn’t love you,” which President Kennedy acknowledged by saying “No, you certainly can’t. Those were the last words ever spoken by John F. Kennedy.  Malcolm X and John F. Kennedy were assassinated in unusual setting just like the A freedom rider headed to New Orleans in 1960. This means that there was a desire needs for change in the way the government activities. Different opinions have been given regarding the need of change. Morgan and Virginia courts opposed each other thought the episode and came up with a consolidated opinion later. This is just like the episode that shows a consolidated compromise between Germany and American government to use the space to survey surveillance movement.  Gaeton, F. (2012).
